Geographies

Selecting a geography allows you to choose funds which invest in a specific geographical region, or regions if you select more than one. The geography does not necessarily reflect the domicile of the fund, where it is legally based.

Investment Focus

Asset Class

You can choose to view funds which invest only in a specific asset class or asset classes, allowing you to focus on a broad swathe of funds which invest specifically in equities, bonds, or commodities – for example.

FE Risk Score

FE Risk scores tell you how risky an investment is compared to the FTSE100. They do not show you how risky an investment is in absolute terms, but are a useful means to compare potential investments with this most widely known index.

Sectors

You can narrow your search by peer groups of funds which are grouped together in sectors, based on similar investment strategies and objectives. Sectors may be defined by an industry body, like the IA, or by FE – which has its own custom sectors.

Volatility

Volatility is a measure of risk which shows how the returns of a fund fluctuate relative to its average returns. The more returns fluctuate, the more likely you are to buy or sell during a peak or trough, so more volatile funds tend to be considered a riskier bet.

Sharpe Ratio

Sharpe Ratio is a measure which shows how much a fund has returned over and above the returns available from a risk free investment, ultimately showing you how much a fund has returned ‘per unit of risk’ taken.

Maximum Loss

Maximum loss shows the maximum a fund has lost between a single peak and trough, at any time during the period you’ve selected. Effectively it shows you the worst case scenario had you invested at the peak and sold at the trough during that time.
